Why Your Employees Are Leaving (And How To Stop It)

Is there anything more disheartening than this…

You’ve booked out work and things are looking busy.

But then just to throw a spanner in the works, one of your guys quits.

If you have a bigger company, you might even have a few resignations within a short period.

It can be easy to look down on these guys.

Almost like they abandoned you.

But here’s the thing.

The sad reality is that employees don’t leave their job, they leave their boss or leader.

And the costs of losing good employees are much larger than most realize.

In financial terms, opportunities and THE stress involved.

Yet many business owners are doing (or not doing) things that are actively causing their

employees to start thinking about that dreaded R word.

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN FROM IMPLEMENTING TODAY’S PODCAST:

Understand how to structure your work culture so that employees enjoy working for you

Learn to charge your employees with accountability and make them feel important

Learn management styles and skills which empower your workers

Understand that you MUST pay good employees a high wage
